CHENNAI: Contractors not placing barricades for the ongoing storm water drain work will be penalised by the city corporation, with the estimated cost of barricading deducted from the final bill.
As per an internal communication on monsoon preparedness, the corporation on Thursday asked the 15 special IAS officers and regional deputy commissioners to inspect the barricading work. The officials must record the length of barricading done and the remaining length that needs to be barricaded. They must also fine the violators.
